Intergovernmental organisation which acts as energy policy
advisor to 28 member countries in their effort to ensure reliable, affordable
and clean energy for their citizens.
Founded during the oil crisis of 1973-74, the IEA’s initial
role was to co-ordinate measures in times of oil supply emergencies. As energy
markets have changed, so has the IEA. Its mandate has broadened to incorporate
the “Three E’s” of balanced energy policy making: energy security, economic
development and environmental protection. Current work focuses on climate change
policies, market reform, energy technology collaboration and outreach to the
rest of the world, especially major consumers and producers of energy like
China, India, Russia and the OPEC countries.
